Chapter 463: Adding chaos
In this matter, the one who amazed Feng Yong the most was Old Demon Zhuge.
As expected of a master of politics, he found the best intervention point and took the best countermeasures in the shortest possible time.
As for Adou or the Queen, they are still a bit young after all.
However, he also controlled the heat quite well, at least it did not arouse Mrs. Feng Yong's resentment, and he stopped decisively.
The person at the bottom is naturally Feng Tubao himself.
Being in the middle of the game, you can only rely on your feelings to know that something is vaguely wrong, and you have to wait until things become clear before you can fully react. Failure!
There was a rare quietness in the prison, and the fire in the stove was burning brightly. Feng Yong borrowed a set of Go from Lu Yi. While entertaining himself, he also thought about his own situation in this matter. Gains and losses.
Liu Liang was detained and punished by Zongzheng Mansion, pouring cold water on those in Jincheng who were ready to take action - the emperor's attitude on this matter was very clear.
The emperor's attitude also indirectly expressed the prime minister's attitude.
“Brother was just careless and fell into the villain’s scheme, so he was imprisoned by the Prime Minister for a month. It’s not a big deal.”
The main hall of the Huang family restaurant has now become the main activity base of the Xinghan Hui.
Zhao Guang pulled up a chair, stepped on it, put his arms on his legs, and looked around at the people below. He looked like a bandit leader who was king of the mountain.
“Everyone, don’t believe rumors, let alone spread them.”
Zhao Guang took the kettle on the table in front of him, poured himself a bowl of water, and drank it, then continued, "Just wait for brother to come out, he will definitely deal with the villain in our club." of."
On both sides of him, Li Yi Wang Xun Yang Qian Qian and Deng Liang were sitting in a row, except for Mi Zhao.
It is self-evident who the villain is.
“Brother, did you really say that?”
There are still some people who are unsure, "That Mi Dalang...is not an ordinary person."
Zhao Guang sneered when he heard this, "No matter how powerful the Mi family is, who is more powerful than the Liu family? You have also seen that my brother smashed the Yuyao Pavilion. Do the Liu family dare to say a word? Liu Liang was beaten by the Zongzheng family and is still in Zongzheng today. He’s lying on the couch in his house!”
Others are afraid of the Mi family and the Liu family, but he is not afraid.
My own family is now the number one in the army, and has saved His Majesty twice. There is a sense of friendship between the Zhao family and the royal family.
In addition, thanks to the great love of my brother, I have made some achievements, and now I have a firm foothold in the military.
No matter if you are a relative or a relative of the emperor, even if the prince comes, as long as you take care of it, you don't have to worry about anyone.
The most important thing is that if others don’t know, don’t you still know the importance of your brother to the prime minister?
Sister Guan went to ask her aunt for help on the day her brother was imprisoned. At that time, her aunt said clearly in four words: Don’t worry.
Zhao Guang felt a little unhappy when he saw that the people below were no longer talking, but still had some doubts on their faces, "You guys look like this, could I still lie to you?"
"Zhao Erlang, it's not that we don't believe you, but...no news about my brother has come out now, and we brothers are also worried about our brother."
"What do you mean no news?" Zhao Guang rolled his eyes, "You have no news, don't I have news too?"
“Zhao Erlang, do you really have news about your brother?”
Zhao Guang snorted, "It's okay to tell you. I went to my uncle's house the day before yesterday and talked about something. Our family is going to make the Ji Weng Zhu technique public. You won't think that this matter has not been done without my brother's approval. Do you agree?"
There was a "buzz" sound, and everyone suddenly started to make a fuss.
“Erlang, Erlang, are you serious about this?”
“Erlang, if this happens, can everyone learn from it?”
“What’s the fuss about?”
Zhao Guangda shouted, looked around at the crowd of people scrambling for the first place, and slapped the table, "Brother has only been in jail for a few days? You are already looking like you are going to break up. Now that you heard there are benefits, you are rushing forward again?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked ashamed.
After a while, someone asked cautiously, "Erlang, what should we do?"
Only then did Zhao Guang smile with satisfaction, put his feet down from the chair, took two steps back and forth, as if he was deep in thought, then clapped his hands and said, "Yes, in the past, it was always my brother who thought of ways to benefit our brothers, but he never Not thinking about myself.”
“Brother loves us so much, we can’t be unjust. Now is the time for us to do something for our brother.”
“Erlang, just tell me, what do you want me to do?”
Someone shouted.
Zhao Guang was not annoyed and explained, "My brother originally planned to propose marriage to Brother Guan and marry Sister Guan after returning to Jincheng. How could he have thought that something like this would happen? In that case, why not wait for me? Just help.”
As soon as these words came out, Li Yi, Wang Xun and others suddenly widened their eyes.
"The third lady of the Guan family, aren't you already in charge of your brother's house now? Why do you need our help?"
Before Feng Yong was imprisoned, the affairs of Xinghanhui were entrusted to Zhao Guang and Li Yi.
As for the affairs of Feng's house, all matters were entrusted to Guan Ji.
Guan Ji is not pretentious, she sits in the Feng Mansion without any courtesy, like a hostess.
Although she has a cold temperament, it does not mean that she is unwilling to fight, especially since Feng Yongdu is already in prison, how can she do nothing?
Having her in charge of the Feng Mansion not only immediately calmed down the people in the Feng Mansion, but even the people in the Xinghan Society believed that nothing would happen to Feng Yongyong.
The Guan family is also the home of a monarch after all, and the Prime Minister favors Guan Xing. If he hadn't believed that nothing would happen to Feng Yong, how would he have allowed Guan Ji to do this?
"Don't you know that there are rumors about my brother and the Zhang family's wife in Jincheng now? Everyone thinks that the brother is interested in Zhang's wife. How can this be done? We have to let them know that the brother is marrying Guan'a Sister!"
Zhao Guang said decisively.
Li Yi couldn't bear it any longer, walked forward tremblingly, lowered his voice and said viciously, "Erlang, brother didn't tell you this!"
The matter between my brother and the two daughters Guan and Zhang is already messy enough, how can I and others get involved in it?
“This is for us, the younger brothers, to share our worries with our elder brothers.”
Zhao Guang waved his hand and said, "Brother will definitely thank us when he comes out."
“I think my brother will beat you to death!”
Zhao Guang has been with his brother for the longest time, and in the eyes of everyone, he is the person whom his brother trusts the most. Li Yi naturally has no way to refute Zhao Guang's face in front of everyone, but he gritted his teeth and said in his heart.
“Is it your intention to ask your brother first about this matter?”
Someone asked hesitantly.
After all, it is about the reputation of the brother and the third wife of the Guan family. What if the brother is unhappy when they do this?
“What are you afraid of? I’ll take care of anything!”
Zhao Guangda took over everything, "I'm not afraid to tell you that my brother has already made plans for this public blessing."
As he spoke, he pointed to a row of down jackets hanging next to him, "If we don't raise more chickens and ducks, how can we get a lot of down to make these down jackets? Now we have taken the lead and gained a reputation first. Even if others follow suit in the future, Then we will be crushed by it."
Zhao Guang took it directly and changed it slightly.
Down jackets are now in high demand in Jincheng. After all, they were clothes worn by the emperor himself, which added a noble touch to the clothes.
When everyone heard this, they finally came to their senses and thought that their brother was really far-sighted.
At the same time, they all thought in their hearts, if it were really arranged like this by my brother, wouldn't it be another woolen cloth business?
At the thought of this, everyone's hearts were filled with excitement.
Hanzhong's woolen cloth has no chance to get involved. If he lets this down jacket business slip away from his hands again, he will really regret it until his intestines turn blue.
Before he finished thinking, Zhao Guang knocked on the table again and continued to say heart-wrenching words.
“Brother has plans later, and the benefits will be much greater than this down jacket, but I can’t say it yet. When brother comes out, when the time is right, I will discuss it with everyone.”
"Erlang, you don't have to say it! How can ordinary women be worthy of the dragon and phoenix of my brother? I think that the third lady of the Guan family, after the king, is also known as the tiger girl. It is rare that she can be worthy of it." Having **** with my brother’s girl, the two are a perfect match!”
“Yes, yes! Moreover, my brother and the third lady of the Guan family are in love. Isn’t this a good marriage arranged by God?”
"Yes, as brothers, how can we let our elder brother miss the wedding we are waiting for?"
“We must let the world know that Mrs. Guan Sanniang is my brother’s beauty..."
Someone shouted.
Zhao Guang smiled with satisfaction.
So two days later, I heard that Guan Junhou accidentally broke two long swords while practicing martial arts.
While the veterans of Jincheng were happily eating melons, the Prime Minister's Mansion welcomed a somewhat special guest.
“Li Feng met the prime minister.”
Li Yan's son Li Feng just rushed back to Jincheng from Yong'an and came directly to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"You don't need to be polite, sir." Zhuge Liang was very happy to see Li Feng, "Is it okay for Zhengfang to be in Yong'an? You are here this time, but what good news does Zhengfang have?"
"Prime Minister, everything is well, sir. I received news from Mengda in the new city a few days ago, so I ordered Feng to travel day and night to deliver the message."
“Oh, seriously?” Zhuge Liang said in surprise, “I didn’t expect Meng Da to reply so quickly?”
"That's right. Prime Minister, I heard from you that Mengda really has the heart to return to the Han Dynasty."
Li Feng showed a happy smile on his face, and at the same time took out the envelope from his arms, "Everything your Excellency has said is on it. Please take a look at it, the Prime Minister."
"Okay!" Zhuge Liang eagerly took the letter, suppressing the joy in his heart, and looked at Li Feng again. Although his face looked tired, his demeanor was still as gentle as jade, and he couldn't help but nodded secretly.
Zhuge Liang said in a warm voice, "Da Lang rushed to Jincheng from Yong'an. He must be tired. Let's go down and have a rest first. I will take you to see someone tomorrow."
“I wonder who the Prime Minister wants Feng to see?”
Li Feng asked respectfully.
"This person is quite famous. I think you must have heard of him. His surname is Feng and his given name is Yong. He is a rare talented person."
Li Feng was overjoyed when he heard this, "Feng has heard about Feng Langjun for a long time! He has long admired him, but he has no way to get to know him. If he can be introduced by the Prime Minister in person, he will be really happy."
Zhuge Liang smiled and shook his head, "You are a gentle gentleman, but that boy is not. When we meet tomorrow, I just hope not to be disappointed."
Li Fengxi said diligently, "I will definitely not be disappointed. Feng Langjun has been reciting his articles tirelessly for a long time. Hearing that Feng Langjun had come up with another unique plan for the Prime Minister's southern expedition this time, Feng couldn't wait to have a long talk with him at this time." "
With that said, he bowed again and said, "When I meet with distinguished friends tomorrow, Feng needs to take a good rest to recuperate his energy so as not to lose his etiquette. Prime Minister, Feng will leave first."
“Well, you go ahead.”
After Li Feng retired, Zhuge Liang directly opened Li Yan's letter and read it.
The beginning was indeed as Li Feng said. Li Yan relayed Meng Da's reply, saying that he wanted to work with a good man, and also talked about the previous pacification of Sichuan and Shu with the late emperor.
“It seems that I have to write a letter to Mengda.”
Zhuge Liang said to himself with a smile on his face.
However, later on, Li Yan changed the topic and started talking about the Southern Expedition. He said that the prime minister worked tirelessly and personally led the army to the south, and he was worthy of being a model for the ministers.
The reason why he was able to quickly pacify Nanzhong was because he was extremely talented and could not be matched by others.
Zhuge Liang frowned slightly when he saw this.
Everyone knows that the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty likes people who do practical things and does not like people who are sycophants, so now the official administration of the Han Dynasty is relatively clear.
Li Yan's words made Zhuge Liang a little disgusted.
Unexpectedly, later on, Li Yan began to count the prime minister's previous achievements in detail. The further he went, the more serious the exaggeration became.
The pacification of Nanzhong has been said to have made great contributions to the Han Dynasty, and it is comparable to Huo Guangkuang's support of the Han Dynasty.
At this time, Li Yan expressed his intention: the prime minister should accept Jiuxi, become a noble and king.
He also expressed his willingness to follow the Prime Minister's lead and take the lead in writing a letter to His Majesty.
After reading this, Zhuge Liang's face immediately turned livid, and he couldn't help but slapped the case and got up!
Shouted angrily: "Shuzi is bullying me!"
The nine tin people are nine kinds of rituals that the emperor given to princes and ministers.
They are chariots and horses, clothes, Lexian, Zhuhu, Nubuat, Huben, axes and axes, bows and arrows, and 鬬鬯.
It is the highest courtesy to a minister.
But since Wang Mang came to Cao Cao, Jiuxi had changed.
Nowadays, if a mortal minister can enter Jiuxi, it means that he is always ready to usurp the throne.
For the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, who had always aimed to revive the Han Dynasty and return to the old capital, Li Yan's words were nothing short of the most serious insult to himself!
But Zhuge Liang is the one who holds the power of the Han Dynasty after all. He has seen many big storms and waves. While being angry, he began to think about the intention of Li Yan's words.
Is this what you are really saying, or are you testing yourself?
If he is sincere, then this person will definitely not be able to be retained. At least, we must find a way to reduce him to a civilian position and will not be allowed to serve as an official in the court again.
If it is a temptation... that would be too bold. Is this something that can be discussed between ministers?
Zhuge Liang took a few steps back and forth, thinking of the actions in the palace a few days ago, and his doubts deepened. Is there any connection between them...?
It's just that Li Yan was the one who was entrusted by the late emperor to guard Yong'an, and he had the authority to take leave of absence, and he had all the elite soldiers left by the late emperor.
If he really has evil intentions, then the situation that the big man can easily stabilize will become turbulent again.
Today's big men really can't afford to be in chaos anymore.
When Zhuge thought of this, he let out a long sigh and frowned tightly.
At this moment, a servant came over to report that Chen Zhen had been ordered to visit the mansion.
Zhuge Liang's heart moved and he ordered: "Invite him in."
